[Carbocysteine in the treatment of recurrent bronchitis in infants]
Abstract
In a group of 51 children aged 6-24 months the therapeutic effectiveness of the mucolytic preparation carbocysteine was tested and compared with the effect of Ipeca syrup. The effect was evaluated by means of a point score comprising changes of the clinical picture of the disease and the use of other laboratory examinations. The results of the examination revealed the more favourable effect of carbocysteine, as compared with a mixture of Ipeca syrup in the treatment of acute relapsing bronchitis in infants.
